“…Although these rates mostly pertained to less severe forms of perpetration, dating violence does occur in early adolescence and should be addressed early in middle school. This is critical given research showing that involvement in dating violence during adolescence increases the likelihood of involvement in intimate partner violence in adulthood (e.g., Gomez 2011). Given the low frequencies of more severe forms of dating violence in the current study, another direction for future research would be to examine risk factors for involvement in dating problems , as opposed to violent behaviors, in early adolescence, as these may be more prevalent during this developmental period and may lead to more severe forms of dating violence.…”

Longitudinal Relationships Between Individual and Class Norms Supporting Dating Violence and Perpetration of Dating Violence

Dating violence is commonly perpetrated in adolescence, making it imperative to understand risk factors in order to inform prevention efforts. Although individual norms supporting dating violence are strongly related to its perpetration, few studies have examined their longitudinal impact. Moreover, the influence of class norms (i.e., norms for students in the same grade, cohort, and school) supporting dating violence on perpetration has rarely been studied. The current study examined longitudinal relationships between individual and class norms supporting dating violence and perpetration of physical and psychological dating violence. Participants were two cohorts of sixth graders from 37 schools who were in dating relationships at Wave 1 and 6 months later at Wave 2 (N = 2,022; 43% female; 52% African American, 21% Latino/a, 20% White, and 7% other). The analyses used a multilevel approach, with students represented at Level 1 and classes (n = 74) at Level 2. The models tested direct effects of Wave 1 individual and class norms supporting dating violence on subsequent changes in perpetration of dating violence at Wave 2 and the extent to which gender moderated these relationships. The findings indicated that greater individual norms supporting male dating violence predicted greater change in perpetration of physical and psychological dating violence and greater individual norms supporting female dating violence predicted greater change in perpetration of psychological dating violence. Greater class norms supporting male dating violence predicted greater change in perpetration of physical dating violence; whereas greater class norms supporting female dating violence predicted less change in perpetration of physical dating violence. These findings highlight the need to address norms in early adolescence.

“…Childhood experiences of family victimization include three major subtypes (Finkelhor, Ormrod, Turner, & Hamby, 2005): (a) childhood abuse (i.e., physical, emotional, and sexual abuse); (b) exposure to sibling abuse and domestic violence (i.e., witnessing, hearing or observing signs of sibling and parental victimization); and (c) sibling aggression (i.e., sibling perpetrated victimization). Children with histories of family victimization suffer from high rates of depression (Brown, Cohen, Johnson, & Salzinger, 1998), anxiety (Fergusson, Horwood, & Lynskey, 1996), low self-esteem (Mullen, Martin, Anderson, Romans, & Herbison, 1996), substance use (Fergusson et al, 1996), suicidality (Brown et al, 1998), homelessness (Stein, Leslie, & Nyamathi, 2002) and extrafamilial victimization (e.g., bullying, dating victimization; Duncan, 1999; Gómez, 2010). Furthermore, the consequences of family victimization are multidimensional, impacting physical (e.g., bodily injuries), cognitive (e.g., learning disorders), and behavioral (e.g., delinquency) health (Widom, 2000).…”

A Systematic Review of Family Victimization Experiences Among Sexual Minority Youth

Sexual minority youth experience substantially higher rates of family victimization than their heterosexual peers. No systematic review has yet identified the predictors and consequences in this vulnerable population of childhood abuse, exposure to sibling abuse and domestic violence, and sibling aggression. This systematic review aims to (a) describe differences in these family victimization rates by sexual orientation, gender, and race/ethnicity; (b) identify potential sexual minority and non-sexual minority-specific risk factors; and (c) identify physical, mental, and behavioral health and extrafamilial victimization correlates. The systematic review, which followed PRISMA guidelines, yielded 32 articles that met study inclusion criteria. Rates of childhood physical, sexual, and emotional abuse were consistently higher for sexual minority youth than for their heterosexual peers. Bisexual youth appear to be at greater risk for physical abuse than their gay and lesbian peers. Younger age at sexual minority milestones (first awareness, disclosure, and same-sex sexual contact) and higher levels of sexual minority-specific (sexuality disclosure, gender non-conformity) and non-sexual minority-specific (delinquent behaviors, parental drinking) risk factors were associated with higher rates of family victimization. Sexual minorities who experienced some form of childhood abuse reported more frequent physical (higher rates of HIV, higher BMIs, lower levels of perceived health), mental (higher rates of depression, PTSD symptoms, experiential avoidance, internalized homophobia), and behavioral (higher rates of suicidality, substance misuse, earlier sexual debut, unprotected anal sex) health problems relative to heterosexual or non-abused sexual minority peers. Sexual minority females who experienced childhood physical or sexual abuse were at greater risk than abused sexual minority males for sexual assault later in life. We conclude this systematic review with recommendations for future research, including the necessity for longitudinal research that utilizes a poly-victimization conceptual framework to identify the developmental pathways connecting risk factors, different types of family victimization, and health and extrafamilial victimization consequences.
